What will your product cost to build?
Answer five quick questions and get a price range and launch timeline, based on products we have shipped for founders and product teams.
Four things decide most of your budget.
Scope
Every feature adds design, engineering and testing. The cheapest MVP is the one that does one job well — most products launch with 3–5 core features.
Platforms
A web app is the fastest route to users. Native iOS and Android apps add roughly a third to the build, so many founders launch on web first.
Integrations
Payments, data feeds, CRMs and smart contracts each bring their own edge cases. They are often where timelines slip, so we scope them first.
Design ambition
Applying an existing brand is quickest. Custom UI and motion cost more, but they are what make a product feel trustworthy and convert.
App and MVP cost, answered.
How much does it cost to build an MVP in 2026?+
Most focused MVPs land between $15,000 and $40,000 with a senior team, and ship in 6–12 weeks. Simple marketing sites start around $5,000; SaaS platforms with billing, admin and integrations usually run $30,000–$60,000+.
How long does it take to build an app?+
A focused web MVP typically takes 6–8 weeks. Adding native mobile apps, payments, AI features or smart contracts adds 1–3 weeks each. A clear scope before engineering starts is the biggest factor in hitting the date.
Is this calculator a quote?+
No — it is a ballpark based on similar products we have shipped. A build plan turns it into a fixed scope, a price and a week-by-week timeline, usually within a few days of a first call.
How can I lower the cost of my MVP?+
Launch on web first, cut features that are not essential to the first user outcome, use proven services for auth and payments, and keep the first design system small. We help you decide what to leave for version two.
Do you build AI agents, Web3 dApps and games too?+
Yes. We build AI agents and LLM products, smart contracts and dApps, and games — including Slide & Slay, a browser game we design and run ourselves.
